Japan

By (author) Nicholas Bornoff






| book description |

Nicholas Bornoff brings a long association and intimate knowledge to a country of contradictions and paradoxes that often bewilder Westerners but which Japanese take for granted. Isolated from the world until 150 years ago, Japan today comfortably blends old, new, East, West, tradition, and change. This book offers a comprehensive portrait of one of world's most dynamic countries - not only gives information on history, culture, and sites to visit, but also flavour and texture of the country.
